Ghalib Gitalu for your reading plaesure
बस कॆ दुष्वार है हर काम का आसां होना
आदमी को भि मयस्सर नही इनसां होना
ప్రతిది సులభమ్ముగా సాధ్య పడదు లెమ్ము
నరుడు నరుడౌట ఎంతొ దుష్కరము సుమ్ము
It is impossible that every work is easy
For a man to become a man is not at all easy
चंद् तस्वीरॆ बुता चंद् हसीनों कॆ खुतूत्
बाद् मरनेकॆ मॆरे घरसे यह सामां निकला
నేను మరణింప నా యింటిలోన మిగిలె
ప్రేయసీ చిత్ర పటములు లేఖలంతె
A few images and a few letters from sweet hearts,
Those were the things found at home after my death
मस्जिद् कॆ जेर साया खराबात चाहिए
भो पास आंख खिबला हाजात चाहिए
భృకుటి కిందుగ నయనమ్ము పోల్కిగానె
ఆలయము పంచనే పానశాల వలయు
Next to the prayer hall there should be a drinking place
Just like there is the eye next to the eye brow
पिलादे ओक् से साखी जो हम से नफरत् है
प्याला गर नही देता न दे, षराब तो दे
నీకు నేను గిట్టని యెడ సాకి నాకు
చషకమీకుము దోసిట చాలు మధువు
If you don’t like me Saki, give my drink in my hands only
It is ok, if there is no goblet but, give me the wine
